Holiday Treats

24 Festive Tasks: Door 15 – St. Nicholas’ Day / Sinterklaas, Task 3:

If your holiday family traditions should include bowls or plates filled with gingerbread, cookies, oranges / tangerines, chocolate, nuts and the like, share a photo with us!

Here’s my assortment — this year’s edition:

The traditional Christmas-y stuff:

“Christstollen” (Christmas loaf cake), “Printen” (spicy, crunchy gingerbread bars), “Frankfurt Bethmännchen” (round marzipan and almond cookies), “domino cubes” (chocolate-coated cubes filled with gingerbread mass, chocolate and jelly), and chocolate-coated almond gingerbread cookies

— and the not-necessarily-Christmas-y-but-melt-in-your-mouth-sinfully-delicious stuff: white chocolate and crushed almond tartuffi (pralines) and dark chocolate pralines (both Italian)

… and a chocolate Santa, and two snowmen wearing chequered scarves and red winter bonnets, just because!

Michael J. Sullivan: Legends of the First Empire

Michael J. Sullivan’s Riyria books have been on my TBR for a while, but until I’d read two short stories from the cycle — The Jester and Professional Integrity — I hadn’t been sure whether his writing would be for me.  Then I found out that (much like Tolkien’s Silmarillion, Unfinished Tales, and The History […]
